          This module exploits an unauthenticated directory traversal vulnerability
          in Apache Flink versions 1.11.0 <= 1.11.2. The JobManager REST API fails
          to validate user-supplied log file paths, allowing retrieval of arbitrary
          files with the privileges of the web server user.

          This module has been tested successfully on Apache Flink version 1.11.2
          on Ubuntu 18.04.4.
